The answer is no. Yeldon is going to run rampant behind a much improved oline

No. That was the surprise we all got right before the game. 2 starting DLs were suspended for the whole game. When you already don't have very many DLs, that challenges conditioning quite a bit.


if even your bench can't keep Rice from rushing 300 yards.....there might be a problem

Yeah that means their depth sucks and any good SEC running team will run all over them.

Last year, A&M allowed 57 points to Louisiana Tech and 28 to Sam Houston State, but the most any SEC team scored on them was 29, by Missouri in a 59-29 blowout.

Last year, LSU allowed 22 points to Towson, but mighty Johnny Football only managed 19 against us.

In 2011, Georgia Southern, running an option offense, put up 21 points on Alabama's defense. Surely LSU, playing their option package in the NC game, could score something, right?

To think SEC teams play the same against other SEC teams that they do in cupcake games is misguided.

Don't look for this kind of time against Bama. Look at all those slow guys for Rice.

I agree. You clearly know your football. AJ in decline, oline is bad. Play action will not be effective.

Play action here and there but their offense should be at least 75% run. If they can control the ball with the run A&M's offense will be off the field most of the game.

If bama can't score more than the ags then they will lose. If ags can't score more points than bama they will lose.

All jokes to one side, I predict there will be more passing in the game plan than most Bama fans will be comfortable with.

Suspended players will be back for aTm. Defense will be better.

Any SEC team can stop the run if they put 10 in the box. So yes, Bama does still need to pass the ball.
